Liz Shaw

After training at the Royal Academy of Dance in London, I gained a First Class Honours Degree in Dance & Education from the University of Durham. I spent 20 years teaching a huge range of dance styles (ballet, contemporary, jazz, tap, ballroom, Latin American) to all levels from beginners to professionals and I absolutely loved it! I then re-trained as a Personal Trainer, and now I run Shaw Lifestyle coaching people in exercise, nutrition and stress management to enhance both physical and mental health. Becoming a Swing Trainer was the perfect way to combine the two! Dance is great for our physical health, and fab for our stress levels and mental health too… and above all it’s such FUN! Dance has been a huge part of my life for so many years and it keeps me fit and active :-). In my spare time I love yoga, theatre and to travel…when I can find the time in between the chaos of bringing up my 2 boys!
